Brightness
Settings: "0" – "100"
The screen brightness is adjusted by changing the brightness of the backlight (light source
from the LCD back panel).
Note
• If the image is too dark even when the brightness is set to 100, adjust the contrast.
Contrast
Settings: "0" – "100"
The brightness of the screen is adjusted by varying the video signal level.
Note
• A contrast of 50 displays every color gradation.
• When adjusting the monitor, it is recommended to perform brightness adjustment, which does
not lose gradation characteristics, prior to contrast adjustment.
• Perform contrast adjustment in the following cases:
– If the image is too dark even when the brightness is set to 100 (Set the contrast to higher than
50.)
Temperature
Settings: "Off" / "4000 K" – "10000 K" (in increments of 500 K. 9300 K is included.)
Adjusts the color temperature.
The color temperature is normally used to express the hue of "White" and/or "Black" with a
numerical value. The value is expressed in degrees "K" (Kelvin).
The screen becomes reddish at low color temperatures and bluish at high color
temperatures, similar to the temperatures of a flame. A gain preset value is set for each
color temperature setting value.
Note
• The value shown in "K" is available only as a reference.
• "Gain" allows you to perform more advanced adjustment.
• If set to "Off", the image is displayed in the preset color of the LCD panel (Gain: 100 for each
RGB channel).
• When the gain is changed, the color temperature setting changes to "Off".
Gamma
Settings: "1.8" / "2.0" / "2.2" / "2.4"
Adjusts the gamma.
While the brightness of the monitor varies depending on the video level of the input signal,
the variation rate is not directly proportional to the input signal. Maintaining the balance
between the input signal and brightness of the monitor is referred to as "Gamma correction".
Note
• If "Paper" is selected for the color mode, "Paper" is displayed for the gamma value.
